At least 20 people have been killed in a series of explosions at a bus station in the northern Nigerian city of Kano, witnesses say.
Several buses were destroyed in the Sabon Gari area of the city, home to a large population of Christians from the south of the country.
Kano is the largest city in the mainly Muslim north of Nigeria.
No group has said it carried out the blasts but Islamist militants from Boko Haram have attacked Kano several times.
One eye witness told the BBC's Hausa service that he had seen 20 bodies after the blasts.
Earlier this month, another militant Islamist organisation, Ansaru, claimed to have killed seven foreign hostages seized in the northern state of Bauchi in February.
